I've got a Du box, not one of the Humax ones they talked about, reckon my first port of call should be ringing Du?

****ing tossers.

think if you get it from osn etc you need to fit a new box... we have a separate humax box and dish to osn and we have no issues.

Does anyone know if you can even run two decoders? If I buy the BEin box the new one and the Du box be connected to the wall?

I ****ing hate this country sometimes. Really ****ing hate it. It's so ****ing simple to provide a simple ****ing service and not to act like a bunch of shit **** ****ing half-wits who just insist on making life difficult for the ****ing sake of it.

I'm well aware this is a true first world problem but this ******** move from BeIn is basically going to mean that I stream football now, meaning I'm increasing the number of illegal football watchers by 1 (assuming all other people do nothing). The ****ing idiots. The stupid ****ing idiots.

**** you BeIn sports, **** you Du, **** you ******** country and your pathetic attempts at building good service businesses. **** this region and their inability to do anything properly. You oxygen stealing ****-muppets. You're all wankers. #sorryforswearing.

with al jazeera you had to subscribe separately for the world cup anyways.

I pay extra for BeIn at the moment, if I have to buy a box then I'll still only be paying for it once because I'll cancel the Du one. I just don't get why it's so complicated.

However, Du have emailed promising that all will be fine. Let's wait and see.

Re: BeIn Sports

The switch over happens on the 1st March.

Etisalat and Du should be ok because its a secure connection (so they say).

But as with everything here I take what I am told with a pinch of salt.......hope for the best, but plan for the worst.

I do feel your pain though. Really miss AD Sports now!

Agreed. AD sports nailed it. Al Jazzyera and B'pish has been gash!

no because osn brought in the new boxes that wouldnt work with both cards, so you would need to keep swapping, we had to buy a new bigger dish for osn to work, as the wind kept making the signal bad, so when you could no longer use together with osn, we had a "spare" dish so we just conected al jazeera up to that one so no issues with "sharing!".

Re: BeIn Sports

My BeIn card was put into my OSN box by an OSN technician and now it doesn't work. Even if I buy a new box how do I retrieve the card? What a cluster****.

Anyone know who to go to in order to get all this fixed?

Also - I have a Humax box that I used for AD sports in the past - will this work for BeIn sports????

Has anyone called BeIn sports?!??!
